| - My diet had withered me to a hungry shell of a man, so to provide some much needed relief I decided to try out Fat Bastard Burrito Co on Queen St. This location is essentially purely takeout, since there isn't much seating to speak of. Aside from that, the only other thing to note aesthetically is the button activated sliding front door which just seemed... odd for a burrito joint. Needless detail? Yes.
The food! It was pretty damn good. I opted for the baked chicken burrito, which I'll say right off the bat was good, but if you're looking to maximize your tasty, go for the ground beef or pulled pork. Anyway, the name Fat Bastard Burrito is warranted, because these bad boys are thick and filling. I got a "lil" size and was still healthily satisfied by its conclusion. They stuff the burritos with everything but the kitchen sink: beans, rice, lettuce, cheese, pico de gallo, cilantro, green onions, sweet peppers, jalapenos, mild salsa, coleslaw, sour cream, burrito sauce, hot sauce, guacamole, burrito spice, chicken. Of note, the chicken was cooked well, but it didn't have much seasoning, if any, which I suppose they can pass without considering the myriad of other ingredients, but what can I say; the heart wants what the heart wants. Lastly, I really appreciated how when I asked for spicy, they treated me like an adult and gave me bonafide spicy.
To sum it up, it was obviously very good. You'll find better elsewhere, but for a "fast food" burrito, the ingredients are solid, it leaves you satiated, and the taste is real. Come through.
